Just when I thought HTC might be gaining back some ground against Nokia...
It seems like the HTC Locations app's routing functionality is only free for the 1st month! |

QUOTE(xcen @ Apr 14 2012, 11:15 PM) What's up with closing apps in the background? I believe it's the contest rule because app launches much faster if it's in the background. No, just that they thought with less stuff running in the background they might get it to work faster.Added on April 15, 2012, 3:18 am QUOTE(aspire2oo6 @ Apr 14 2012, 11:56 PM) no example if you loaded angry bird game on iOS even its in the background u run another app and switch back it will load from the start again unlike windowsphone it loads back where u stop. IOS actually works the same as WP in this regard. If you exit and app and return to it through the task list (for ios) or back button (wp) it'll attempt to restore the in progress state.If you click on the app icon again, then the previous one is destroyed, and a new onestarted This post has been edited by marauderz: Apr 15 2012, 03:18 AM |

QUOTE(Chyan @ Apr 15 2012, 04:02 PM) Yeah. For apps on WP7, it's quite a bugger. It can only have that kinda previous state resume done via the longpress backbutton but not if you repress the app again. I have a quibble with this after spending much time with WP7. It is different with the browser though as it still keeps the tabs (surely they had to). But it bugs me when toast notifications only can get you to the main view and not the specific page. It's quite annoying especially when you click on a whatsapp message and will have to wait for it to reload rather than straightaway go to that chat. I hope they fix this issue for WP8. Actually that is the INTENDED behavior, if a user presses BACK through the previous apps the user's intention is to get back to a previous state of the app. If a user launches the app again instead of pressing back, then the intention is that user wants to start anew.That's the basic way of how the OS works. Now.. if the developer wanted to make it so launching the app still restores the previous view and such. That's actually quite possible to do. |

QUOTE(jonchai @ May 31 2012, 10:16 AM) The lack of gyroscope is made up for by internal compass. So you shouldn't feel so "different" from those with a gyroscope. If you act as a tripod, Photosynth will work wonders provided your angle remains the same. To get good results, you must rotate on the center of the CAMERA lens. Hard to explain in text, but try this, rotate the PHONE, NOT your BODY. |

They used Symbian for the first Pureview because they were too late into development already.
